Transforming conflict at the local level: Women peace mediators in Burundi
Vodičková, Anna ; Werkman, Kateřina (advisor) ; Plechanovová, Běla (referee)
Armed conflict affects men and women differently due to their previous roles in the society. For instance, it often crucially changes the status of women and enhances their emancipation. Therefore, women should be included in conflict resolution as well as in peace negotiations and post-conflict reconstruction, to ensure sustainable peace. Examples from many African countries driven by conflict denote that women are not automatically included in these processes. This single intrinsic case study documents the work of women peace mediators in Burundi. At the theoretical level, the study argues for an elicitive endogenous approach to peacebuilding, embedded in the conflict transformation theory by John Paul Lederach. Nevertheless, theoretical concepts are not emphasized because they tend to limit the mediators' agenda which actually involves a wide range of conflict handling mechanisms. The main part of the study is based on semi-formal questionnaires filled out by women peace mediators in Bujumbura. The goal of the research is twofold: First, it is aimed to introduce the mediators and to understand their motivations to mediate. Second, it documents their everyday work by analysing official reports. The findings show that an "average" mediator is a married woman, with children, with at least secondary...

Justice or strategy? Mindset of German parties towards quotas for women's representation in politics.
Vodičková, Anna ; Nigrin, Tomáš (advisor) ; Handl, Vladimír (referee)
Even nowadays, while facing social challenges, eliminating different stereotypes and discovering new ways of life style, it is impossible to change the traditional gender thinking within a few years. Quotas should accelerate this process. This work analyses women's status in political parties which are represented in the German Parliament in 2015: CDU, CSU, SPD, The Greens and Die Linke. In terms of this analysis the work is focusing on quotas within those German political parties - if they exist at all and if so, in which form. Beside that, it also analyses the parties' stances towards to gender politics based on their political programs. Are quotas directly related to women's representation in politics? Furthermore the work sums the evolution of women's status in Germany and in its politics. This serves as an introduction into the issue of gender quotas. The goal of this work is to answer the question, whether quotas have a positive influence on women's representation in German politics.

The empiric part of the work sets forth the results of research carried out by means of qualitative approach, using the method of semi-sctructured dialogue. The research set has consisted of nurses from a hospital internal department and from a hospice type facility. Acquired information have been analyzed and categorized by means of open coding with applying the "pencil and paper" method. In consequence with the research, the chief target has been selected, which is to determine the ways of how nurses in palliative treatment cope with their charges. Consequently, there have been two other targets set forth. These have been to ascertain factors imposing on nurses in contatct with a dying person, and to point out to ways of coping with charges. In the process of the research all inquiries concerning the stated targets have been responded. The research shows that the inquired nurses have vast experience with dying patients treatment. As the most serious the psychical charge has been indicated. They are well aware of this fact. For coping with this problem they use similar methods, among which active relaxation and rest are the most frequent.
